Exhaust on a budget

After a lot of research and not a lot of money........... would a new CC, HPmuffler make sense. The other mods would be a CAI and a breather tank.

On a budget...leave it alone! Spend your $$ on frequent quality oil/filter changes.

don't want a race car/street machine. But I thought a few in/out improvements could enhance my cars performance.

Exhaust system and budget don't mix when choosing one for a g. It's either motordyne or tomei everything else is sub par

The reason I posted, "Leave your exhaust alone if you're on a budget" is simply because there is no inexpensive way to improve on what Nissan made without it sounding terrible! Muffler delete will give you lots of noise, test pipes will result in rasp. Believe it or not buying a great exhaust and spending those big $$ will result in less MPG...fact!

I would agree that exhaust mods to lower mpgs. If your worried about mpg then maybe a Toyotoa prius is the car you should of bought 😂

Jesus..

OK,

engine = air pump

Objective -get air in quickly/get air our quickly.

Obstacles - fiberglass (packed in muffler) and turbulance (resonators [G-tube and pre muffler]).

Solution - Z-tube, resonator delete, free flowing muffler with same in/out configuration.

Cost - ~$350

Problems - drone at high load/low rpm
Get a shitty muffler, get a shitty sound. Plenty of sound clips on YouTube for magnaflow, Borla, etc.

Thanks. Perhaps....I think. Still haven't cleared any of my ??? If I can increase air intake/out why would that be a negative thing?
